From video: Started off rough, with me being certain on only 2 of the first 7 (plus guessing liver and "I have no clue if it's not Marie Antoinette" both working out), but after that I did better, and after #22 the only one I missed was losing the Gershwin coinflip at #40 for a total of 42 correct.

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :( :( :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :( No guess Wednesday; looking it up, it was unfamiliar. Plus I misread the clue as World War II, not that that would have helped. Edie Falco to say something Thursday. Have not seen Viola Davis in any of her award-winning roles... or, checking...

:mrgreen: :( :mrgreen: :( :mrgreen: :( :( :mrgreen:* Metamorphoses (which I knew was Ovid, but I managed to convince myself was worth a try), Georgia Tech Have not read nor seen The Right Stuff and had to convince myself it was the right title. * I said "bigmouth bass," which Wikipedia lists as a re...

Sometimes it helps to remember the category: ENTERTAINE”D”. I did not know it, but figured out which team to guess since I always start recalling teams with the NL West. I thought of the Diamondbacks but clammed, because why would the Diamondbacks have a bobcat mascot? (A quick visit to Google reve...

"Mardi Gras" is not a good answer for some other phrase in French. :oops: Hey, you were only one day off. No guess on FJ! I considered Daedalus, Icarus, and Pegasus, but couldn't connect any of them with a character and the idea of picking a mythological name and hoping for the best didn't occur to...

Mary Poppins, ending a streak at 10 correct.
I'm not sure if I've received anything from PCH. I usually don't look at junk mail.
Also not sure if I've read a full Longstocking book. I might have for school.

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :( :( :( Have both read the book and seen the movie. I thought it would be harder (for people who don't recognize the quote) to puzzle out than it seems to have been. Considered Remembrance but ruled it out. I have almost certainly eaten at least one...

At home, I got Casablanca. But if I were keeping any sort of score (let alone if i were playing for real), I'd have clammed, because I thought Casablanca was one of the big ones on the "What the heck was the Academy thinking not giving it Best Picture?" list.

:( :( :mrgreen: :( :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: Truman, Augustus Caesar (desperation guess), no guess. The only other one I considered Monday was Nixon, but I dismissed him because he would have resigned in Washington and that's when I would have thought he became an ex-President. Warren ...

:( :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :( :( :mrgreen: Misinterpreted dream child as star child and said Arthur C Clarke. Said knickerbockers without considering "named for a body part." As for Friday's FJ, I said the full name, but if I was writing it down I would have just said "Mormon Church."
